Just found out that the boat with the Excel is scheduled to arrive on Friday. Looking to pick it up in June after everything is done. The previous owner and I have been corresponding and he has been very helpful. Can't wait!

Since Florida does not have a front plate, I just ordered a front euro plate from here: eurosportdaytona.com

It will simply say LOTUS, and I purchased the GB one.

I also forgot to mention that I think I have found a good option for a 3rd brake light which will fit into the rear spoiler. I want something that is mostly invisible when not lit up. I will post some pics when I do it.

No, never in Spain. It was white with half blue leather.
